RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)
When any electronic device is adversely affected by radio waves, radio
frequency interference (RFI) is said to have occurred. All electronic devices
like the distress alarm may be subject to the effects of RFI, most of which
are temporary in nature. Users of an SCBA with the integrated distress
alarm must be familiar with the normal operation of the distress alarm and
must also be familiar with how to identify and avoid the effects of RFI (see
DETECTING AND AVOIDING RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE). If
RFI occurs to the distress alarm, it may be caused by transmissions from
hand-held or personal radios where the radio antenna is touching or very
close to (less than 6 inches from) components of the distress alarm. It
may also be caused by transmissions from base stations or high-powered
vehicle-mounted radios or any other powerful source of electromagnetic
radiation.
INTRINSICALLY SAFE LISTING
The distress alarm with Integrated Locator transmitter, Model Number
201160-SERIES, when installed on a 3M Scott Fire & Safety SCBA, is
listed by SGS U.S. TESTING COMPANY INC. as intrinsically safe per
ANSI/UL Std. UL-913 for use in Class I, II, Division 1, Groups C, D, E, F,
and G Hazardous Locations, only when powered by the batteries listed in
this instruction or indicated on the label on the Sensor Module.
To maintain Intrinsic Safety Listing, inspect the SCBA with distress alarm
regularly per the Regular Operational Inspection procedures in this
instruction.
Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety.
To
reduce the risk of ignition of a flammable atmosphere, batteries must only
be changed in an area known to be nonflammable. To reduce the risk of
explosion, use only the approved batteries, do not mix old batteries with
unused batteries, or mix batteries from different manufacturers.
HAND HELD RECEIVER NON-INCENDIVE LISTING
The HHR (P/N 200397-04) is listed by SGS U. S. TESTING COMPANY,
Inc. as Non-Incendive per ISA Std. 12.12.01 and UL 1604 for use in Class
I Division 2 Groups A, B, C, and D hazardous locations. Temperature Code
T4 (-25° C to 85° C). To maintain the Non-Incendive Listing, the equipment
must be inspected regularly per the following Regular Operational
Inspection procedures. Do not tamper with or substitute components in
any manner. Use only Battery Pack P/N 200402-02. Open the battery
compartment
only
in an area known to be free of flammable or explosive
hazards.
WARNING – Substitution of components may impair the non-
incendive listing.
To reduce the risk of ignition of a flammable atmosphere,
battery must only be changed in an area known to be nonflammable. Do
not substitute any other battery or power source.
If this distress alarm is being used as part of a complete NFPA 1981, 2018
edition compliant SCBA assembly, report any operational malfunctions to
the certification agency Safety Equipment Institute (SEI).
QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS
If you have any questions or concerns regarding use of this equipment or
if you need additional copies of this or related user instructions, contact 3M
or your 3M distributor.
WARNING
SUBSTITUTION OF COMPONENTS MAY IMPAIR
INTRINSIC SAFETY. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
IGNITION OF A FLAMMABLE ATMOSPHERE,
BATTERIES MUST ONLY BE CHANGED IN AN
AREA KNOWN TO BE NONFLAMMABLE. TO
REDUCE THE RISK OF EXPLOSION, DO NOT
MIX OLD BATTERIES WITH UNUSED BATTERIES
OR MIX BATTERIES FROM DIFFERENT
MANUFACTURERS.
WARNING
LOOSE OR WORN ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS
OR INSTALLATION OF INCORRECT BATTERIES
MAY CAUSE A HAZARDOUS SITUATION IN A
FLAMMABLE OR EXPLOSIVE AREA. IF THE
DISTRESS ALARM IS USED IN AN AREA OF
EXPLOSIVE OR FLAMMABLE HAZARDS,
FAILURE TO REGULARLY INSPECT AS
INSTRUCTED, FAILURE TO CORRECT DAMAGE
BEFORE USE, OR THE INSTALLATION OF
INCORRECT BATTERIES MAY LEAD TO A
FIRE OR EXPLOSION, WHICH MAY RESULT IN
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
WARNING
DO NOT USE AN RFID TAG READER THAT HAS
AN OUTPUT POWER GREATER THAN 6 WATTS
WHILE IN A FLAMMABLE ATMOSPHERE.
WARNING
FAILURE TO REGULARLY INSPECT THE
HHR
AS
DESCRIBED IN THIS INSTRUCTION OR FAILURE
TO CORRECT ANY DAMAGE FOUND MAY
IMPAIR THE SAFETY OF THE EQUIPMENT. THE
INSTALLATION OF INCORRECT BATTERY OR
SUBSTITUTION OF ANY OTHER COMPONENTS
MAY IMPAIR THE SAFETY OF THE EQUIPMENT.
IF THE EQUIPMENT IS USED IN AN EXPLOSIVE
OR FLAMMABLE ATMOSPHERE, IMPAIRING
THE SAFETY OF THE UNIT MAY LEAD TO A FIRE
OR AN EXPLOSION, WHICH COULD RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
WARNING
REPLACE THE
HHR
BATTERY PACK ONLY
WITH SCOTT BATTERY PACK, PART NO.
200402-02. DO NOT REMOVE, RE-CHARGE,
OR REPLACE BATTERY PACK WHILE THE
DEVICE IS IN A HAZARDOUS LOCATION.
REMOVING, RE-CHARGING, OR REPLACING
THE BATTERY PACK WHILE THE DEVICE IS IN
A HAZARDOUS LOCATION MAY LEAD TO A FIRE
OR AN EXPLOSION, WHICH COULD RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
